I Build a Graveyard in My Dreams

This installation features five gravestones, each uniquely hand-engraved or hand-painted with text. Every stone reflects different possibilities surrounding death and killing, while also contemplating alternative futures that could unfold. For me, the gravestones become a symbolic landscape where memory, loss, and hope coexist, prompting viewers to consider how we negotiate the tensions between endings and new beginnings.
